Hi, Sandra, Thanks for the tutorial, one problem that after installing the file successfully and refresh the Database node, no Northwind is there, I have queried some source, but it could not help. Is there a valid solution to fix this? Thanks.

Ótimo tutorial, o arquivo exemplo pode ser salvo com extensão SQL utilizando o Sublimetext. Facílimo de executar para quem deseja aprender SQL, e não tem experiência, assim como eu.
